But now, I'm nearly too tired to keep my eyes open anymore, so it's time to call it a night. Still, I can eke out some answers to your questions.1. I have no problem with your ranger being shorter than typical for an elf.2. Conspiracy Hunter is a fine trait to select. I should point out that each PC may select 2 traits to start the game...one campaign-specific from the PG, and one general from the newly released Traits document, available as a free download.3. Here's how I'd like to handle your ranger's dog. The animal can be purchased at 1st level for the price of 40 gp (the premium is due to the fact that the animal will eventually grow to be so large). Initially, the animal will be statted as a common dog, and will be subject to the normal rules for Handle Animal skill checks, if it is to be sent into combat or perform any other 'tricks.' When your character reaches 4th level, the stats can increased to those of a wolf (for role-playing purposes, we can assume that by this time the dog has grown to sufficient level of size and ferocity to justify the change). Of course, at this time, the relevant rules associated with the Hunter's Bond come into play. Is this acceptable to you?</blockquote>
